Cuda runtime install on Minimal image

Hello,
I have build a minimal image for jetson orin nano following below link:

I have download package from Index in my host computer. While I was connected and communicating with board using UART, I created a folder inside root and brought the sd card into linux host computer and copied the deb package into the folder. Then I inserted the sd card into board used sudo dpkg -i package.deb and dpkg -x package.deb, none of them did not work. It showed sudo and dpkg is not found.

I also download runfile(local) using below command in host machine:
wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/12.3.2/local_installers/cuda_12.3.2_545.23.08_linux.run
Copied the file to SD card and tried to install in orin nano board with
sudo sh cuda_12.3.2_545.23.08_linux.run

But it showed sudo is not found.

The file size is 4.07G. Should not the cuda runtime more smaller ?

How to install cuda runtime and use it ?

Hi,
ForJetpack 5.1.2, the CUDA version is 11.4. We would suggest download the package through SDKManager. And it is downloaded to

~/Downloads/nvidia/sdkm_downloads/cuda-repo-l4t-11-4-local_11.4.19-1_arm64.deb

There are no sudo or dpkg in this minimal image. Here is bin directory:

ash grep rev
base32 gunzip rm
busybox gzip rmdir
busybox.nosuid hostname run-parts
busybox.suid kill sed
cat ln sh
chattr login sleep
chgrp ls start_getty
chmod mkdir stat
chown mknod stty
cp mktemp su
cpio more sync
date mount tar
dd mountpoint touch
df mountpoint.sysvinit true
dmesg mv umount
dnsdomainname netstat uname
dumpkmap pidof usleep
echo pidof.sysvinit vi
egrep ping watch
false ping6 zcat
fgrep ps
getopt pwd

Hi,
SDKManager is installed on host. Please have a host PC in Ubuntu 18.04 or 20.04.

I not using SDK Manager

Hi,
We would suggest have a host PC to use SDKManager for further development.

Actually, I do not want to use SDK Manager. I am using Linux Mint, and SDK Manager does not work on another distro unless it’s Ubuntu. Is there any way I can add them to the image (in BSP layer or any other layers ?)?

Hi,
You can download this deb file and try to install it:
https://repo.download.nvidia.com/jetson/common/pool/main/c/cuda-11-4/cuda-11-4_11.4.19-1_arm64.deb
